The walking enthusiast is well catered for in Ireland, there are hundreds of way marked trails across the country, which will guide you through some of Ireland's most beautiful landscapes. Often leaflets are available from the local tourist offices, which not only contain maps, but snippets of information about the area, such as events in history that have taken place there, or famous or infamous people associated with the locality.

Some of these walks will take you through remote areas of the country, be prepared for a change in the weather, always take warm waterproof clothes, some food and water, and tell someone your intended route. Choose a county from the jump menu above to find a walk.
